Design Studio students spend time researching the ultimate career goal they plan to reach within the design industry and make a specific plan to achieve that goal. They look at educational requirements as well as transferable skills required, but further their research to defining an educational and professional plan extending past post-secondary training to achieve their goals.

Design Studio students have installed new displays for fall.  They are located right outside the library in the 600 hallway. 

A design journal is a notebook in which a designer keeps track of ideas, sketches, concepts, inspirations and anything else that pertains to the design work he or she does.

 

Studio students work on their design journal throughout the year.  As with all Design Studio projects, the assignments are similar for each student, but the outcome is unique.

Design Trends students produced the annual spring fashion show, Perfect Fit, showcasing their original designs and those of Design Studio and Textile Design 1 & 2.
